Aye. The body itself is less than half a cm wide, so it'd probably be better to design a wider transport version from scratch.

Come to think of it, a prety simple conversion could probably be made by fusing two valkyrie bodies together. Use two sets of rotors, one cockpit, add a centre troop transport compartment and stick two tail fins on and I thik you'd have a pretty decent looking model right there.

Sounds like an EPIComp winning idea to me!

I really like this. The movement of the chin gun just makes the whole model seem stronger, it was a little bolted on as an after-thought.  :agree:

The turbo-fans are better and the fuselage jets beef up the model nicely. My only problem with the previous design was that they were a little spindly, and looked more like unmanned drones. These are very cool.

I'm usually very slow to buy new models because of the cost (usually scratchbuild badly or buy second hand) but they are sooooooooo nice.
If only they came in packs of four....

They will be a pack of four, with enough rocket pods and cannon pods for all four.

Ooooooh, the million dollar question!

Well, no, it will be more because you get an extra model in the pack, plus you get rocket pods as well as cannon pods. The fuselage is also a tad heftier.

However, I cannot put an exact price on it until I can weight the production formation (all our prices factor in the weight of the formation). So I'll be able to release the prices fairly close to the actual release date.
